The 64th Street studio was abandoned when Woody and Tatjana moved in 1951 to Rego Park, a residential section of Queens adjacent to Forest Hills. “I don’t think we lived at West 64th for a year,” said Tatjana. “The problem was that we did look around Manhattan because we wanted to stay in Manhattan, and we couldn’t find anything that was affordable. For some months Wallace had trouble getting rid of that studio. When we moved, he managed to get rid of the studio or shortly thereafter. Paying the double rent for the apartment as well as the studio was hard. The Rego Park apartment was large enough that he could work in it, whereas that was a tiny little apartment on 64th Street. When we lived in Rego Park, that’s when I met Al Williamson; he and Roy were always kind of friendly. As steady help in Rego Park, it was just Orlando.”
